Have you ever heard of an EMC sign? EMC stands for Electronic Message Center.  These signs are also known as Outdoor LED signs, Message Boards or simply, Digital Signs. These specialized signs are computerized, programmable, electronic visual communication devices specially manufactured for the outside environment. You are able to display multiple messages in numerous formats whether it be your company name, colorful logo, animation, seasonal special, or a message you want to easily communicate to those passing by. The benefits of these signs are numerous, including being extremely cost efficient. Instead of getting completely new signs every time you want to display something different, EMCs allow you to change the message shown on the sign as many times as you want. Another important aspect to these signs is that they are able to withstand severe weather including snow, rain, and direct sunlight. It is a sign that you can use for many years and it will never go out of style. EMCs can change style quicker that the styles around you can change. EMCs also have easy to use software that makes displaying any and all messages trouble-free. By designing and creating your message on the software, you can display your events, announce awards, create new advertisements, and drive specific products that you want to promote on the outdoor, LED signage. While these signs are more expensive than a simple outdoor business sign, you have endless options and capabilities that make this sign a cost effective, efficient, and easy to use sign for your company. On June 25th, Riverbend Signworks will be hosting a free, educational event for businesses to learn more about EMCs and what they can do for a company. At the 2015 Digital Messaging Discovery Day, Joe Mennella, the Regional Sales Manager for Electo-Matic, will be our guest speaker sharing his knowledge on digital messaging boards. There will be live demonstrations and tips on how to properly use these signs, how to sell advertising and what options to choose.
